LYRICS:

        C'mon girls!

(Verse 1)
        A school bell rings off the day,
        Brings in a stray a few girls at play.

        Cut school, pink slips are fine,
        For a good time there's boys on their minds.

        A bad girl smoking in school,
        Breaking the rules, acting real cool.

        Talk about all the rock boys,
        Back seat joys with some boy's toy.

(Chorus)

        At the girlschool,
        'Cause my baby broke all the rules.
        At the girlschool,
        'Cause my baby broke all the rules.

(Verse 2)

        Saddle shoes, uniforms blue,
        Love all the girls in the girlschool.

        Traffic jam in the hallway,
        Ooh I'm gonna stay, this makes my day.

        Here they come, girls from the school,
        Breaking the rules, hot on the loose.

        My girl left right from school,
        Came over to my house ooh!

(Sing Chorus X2)

        You're staying after school.

(Bridge)

        At the girlschool,
        'Cause my baby broke all the rules.
        Girlschool,
        'Cause my baby broke all the rules.

        Pink slips, lips of wine,
        For a good time, boys on ther minds.

        At the girschool,
        'Cause my baby broke all the rules.

(Sing Chorus X4)
